The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Marine pelagic ecosystems: the West Antarctic Peninsula (2007, background): “Adult Antarctic krill are known to select for diatoms when given mixtures of diatoms and prymnesiophytes or diatoms and cryptomonads (Haberman et al. 2003a,b).”
Synergistic effects of iron and temperature on Antarctic phytoplankton and microzooplankton assemblages (2009, background): “antarctica appears to be relatively minor (Caron et al., 2000; Haberman et al., 2003).”
Iron limitation across chlorophyll gradients in the southern Drake Passage: Phytoplankton responses to iron addition and photosynthetic indicators of iron stress (2007, background): “However, grazing pressure on larger phytoplankton from abundant krill may also alter the phytoplankton community size structure and potentially limit increases in phytoplankton standing stocks (Haberman et al. 2003).”
Phytoplankton spatial distribution patterns along the western Antarctic Peninsula (Southern Ocean) (2003, background): “The krill model does not explicitly include the effect of size on krill ingestion rate, and does not incorporate the known selectivity of Antarctic krill for diatoms (Haberman et al. 2003).”
Phaeocystis blooms in the global ocean and their controlling mechanisms: a review (2005, background): “The selectivity cannot be entirely attributed to differential sieving efficiency based on particle size, but the food quality could also be a key factor (Haberman et al., 2003).”
